My husband has stage 4 cancer which has been very aggressive and weakened him enormously. Last night he fell onto the floor trying to get off the sofa. Today he seems stronger but I worry about the stairs, about going out and leaving him alone while I work. What should I do?
We are still waiting for OT assessment and despite multiple requests haven’t an appointment.
